UEFA FFP investigation - CAS decision to be announced Monday, 13th July 9.30am BST

Interesting Twitter thread here from a QC who specialises in Sports Law.

Some very dodgy faces in that picture, why would we want them as " friends " ?

Like Bournemouth, Brighton & Southampton, who I'm told are all in Liverpool's sphere of influence, you mean?

I mean clubs who wont gain an advantage from us being excluded from the CL, IE our direct rivals. It's all moot anyway considering what @JohnMehrzadQC says about CAS and considerations.

What the 8 want to do is two. fold imo

Give them a better chance to win the CL if we are not in it

Cripple us without the CL money so we can't spend as much on players or keep our best players thus damaging us in the prem

Jesus this thread depresses me.

Football is one murky, cesspit of an industry, I'm honestly at a point of knocking it on the head if the club can't overturn all this, what's the point?.

That's it in a nutshell Kaz. It's as simple as that. They want us out of the game.

Amazing how these clubs aided by the muppets in the press have convinced 9 out of 10 football fans that it is legitimate for them to make up their own rules about how other clubs can and cannot spend their own money. It’s basic facist policy adopted by the masses.

Did they ever want us in?

Terrified that their little sector of industry would be shared by someone who actually wants to treat it like a normal business.

Up to now we have played and beaten their rules. Lets see if their influence spreads beyond.

Scumbags. Every one of those eight clubs. Sheer scumbags.
